A wildly successful alternative to traditional day spas?its more than 250 locations blanket 36 states and eight countries?Planet Beach Spa is a futuristic relaxation station where state-of-the-art machines administer all the spa and tanning services. These friendly automatons sometimes replace familiar treatments, as in the Luminous facial, a light-based service that delivers blemish-busting results similar to those of a conventional facial. But other equipment maps out new spa territory entirely: the Hydro-Derma Fusion chamber moisturizes the whole body with nutrient-rich steam in order to offset the effects of a dry climate or a rear-end collision with a salt truck. The range of services include total skincare, wellness, weight management, relaxation and renewal treatments. Other machines whiten teeth, spray-tan skin, and massage muscles. Planet Beach operates on a gym-style membership system, meaning that members purchase packages or pay flat monthly rates. As members spend more time at the spa, they get to know the helpful assistants who are always on hand to demonstrate how to use the equipment without activating its ability to cry.

Bella Dente cosmetic experts revivify patrons with tanning and teeth-whitening treatments. Technicians brighten smiles from two to eight shades with Beaming White's two-pronged whitening attack, which pairs hydrogen peroxide gels with an LED light that activates the gel’s whitening ingredients. Patrons can also sun-kiss bodies sunlessly by stepping into a VersaSpa tanning booth.

Tan Seekers not only has four levels of high-tech tanning beds and standup booths that bronze skin in as little as eight minutes, but also beds that do more than just tan. The Rejuvasun bed, for instance, combines tanning-bed lights with LED lights so it can simultaneously tan skin and boost collagen production to fight the signs of aging. Yet another bed, the Hydration Station, offers clients a steam-enhanced, hydrating sunless tan that dries without streaks. ?
Clients can top off their new looks with self-administered teeth-whitening sessions and, at certain locations, My-Lipo body-sculpting treatments. Complementing the tanning sessions are a variety of products, including a cooling lotion that feels almost as nice on freshly tanned skin as a hug from a snowman.

Laser Hair & Skin Center of Monroeville's experienced staff specializes in noninvasive med-spa services that have earned multiple awards, including the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Readers' Choice Awards Gold and Silver honors. Staff members attend routine seminars to keep their skills sharp, staying ready to perform the latest skin rejuvenation and hair-removal techniques. Among their arsenal of beautifying treatments, staff members can harness LED lights to boost collagen with photomodulation procedures, minimize blemishes with organic Hylunia facials, and remove unwanted hair without burning it off during a round of fire limbo.

Technicians at Sun Savvy Sunless Tanning custom blend Evolv tanning solutions for each client according to color preference and skin type. They also use heated airbrush machines to make the spray-tanning session as comfortable as possible.

Anytime Tan Tanning Club first powered up its trio of German-made tanning beds in September, 1985, during the peak of the decade’s indoor-tanning boom. But just as bulky car phones and shoulder pads have faded away in the years that followed, Anytime Tan Tanning Club has stayed on top of trends by acquiring the latest equipment for its eight area locations.
The staff members at each location can pair clients with all manner of machines, from powerful Ergoline beds and booths to innovative sunless-tanning solutions from VersaSpa. For added vanity, most of the salon’s locations offer professional teeth-whitening services. And the Robinson location even provides Evolv sunless tanning and innovative red-light therapy, which aims to diminish signs of aging or the fact that someone enjoys napping on pizzas.
